Do we really need ietm (class iv/ level 4)? do we have any alter

Well If I answer this question in one word, it’s YES. OEM definitely needs IETM. Then I need to justify why “YES” And about alternatives if any. Now IETM has become a mandatory deliverable when OEM is supplying any Electrical, Mechanical or electronic systems to the Navy/IAF/Army All manuals i.e. UHB, Technical Manuals soft copies / PDFs anyhow how will be given on DVD and the same will also be given as Hard copies. IETM software /DVD is also supplied along with them. What is the full form of IETM What is the full form of IETM -Code And Pixels What exactly is ETM? In simpler words, it’s an electronic copy of your user manuals. PDF is also an electronic manual. Let’s assume that your system has 20 Documents around 5000 pages altogether and you have delivered them on DVD. When a problem arises, the operator needs to refer hard copy for a solution. Suppose, there is an issue with a piece of equipment, i.e. receiver. Now, the user has to refer User manual, maintenance manual, and troubleshooting manual which may be more documents to resolve the issue. Referring to 5-6 hard copy manuals will be difficult. And moreover, we cannot do “Ctrl + F” searches as we can do in PDF. Hence refereeing Hardcopy is difficult. Then how about referring to PDF? Yes, certainly, a PDF is better than a HARD copy. Still, we need to refer to multiple pages and multiple documents. Switching between pages and documents is also very difficult. Cross-reference is also a challenge or limitation in PDF. In such a scenario, IETM is very handy and user-friendly. With a single click, we can get complete information from all 5000 pages and we can have filters to narrow down our search criteria we can have hyperlinks within the manuals and also to other manuals, hyperlinks to Images, videos, and drawings for more clarity on the issue that we are searching.
